Multiforce Introduces

Alerts and Reservations to FuelForce EV™

Multiforce Systems Corp. has introduced Driver Alerts and Reservations to their new FuelForce EV™ fleet fueling solution. EV (electric vehicle) fueling commonly occurs while the driver is away from their vehicle at work or play. Because of limited charger locations at most particular parking areas, the system needed a way to alert drivers when their EV is charged or when a charging station becomes available.

EV Alerts and Reservations

The Driver Alerts and Reservations system helps efficiently communicate and coordinate EV charging station activity and utilization. An EV driver can enter their mobile phone number at time of authorization to receive charging status messages. FuelForce-EV™ will alert the EV driver when the process starts, ends, or is interrupted prior to completion.

Better still, when all the charging stations in the lot are in use, the unique FuelForce-EV™ reservation feature can alert the driver when a specific charging station is available. The driver can return to initiate their own EV charging session.

"The EV driver may reserve more than one charging station at a time, taking advantage of parking lot topology to receive a text when the next charger nearby is free," notes Chris Bates, VP of Development.

"This is one of many planned enhancements for FuelForce-EV," said Warren Williams, Director of EV Fueling Development . "Multiforce has always been a pioneer in fuel management. With the ever-growing base of electric vehicles, the time has come for a fuel management system to help fleet managers control electric vehicle charging costs from the same platform they use to manage any other fuel."
